Preamp Deal of the Century


If anyone is looking for a true "World Class" preamp at a very fair price..heed my advice. I just recieved a Supratek Syrah preamp that was hand built by Mick Maloney in Western Australia, and it is absolutely beautiful! This preamp is the best deal you will ever find. I would put it up against any preamp out there for both looks and sound. Price? $2500 for the Syrah (includes Killer Phono stage). Not into phono? Try the Chardonney line stage for $2100. Don't get me wrong, I am not associated with this company. I am just a very happy owner! This preamp is VERY dynamic, yet liquid. It conveys the sound of music better than any other preamp that I have ever heard! You can check out the Supratek website at www. cantech.net.au

I am sorry to hear about Supratek's demise. I have lurked on this thread for awhile, but have not checked in for a month or so. What a surprise.

I own a Cortese, which I bought new from Mick a year and a half ago. The Cortese is very special to me. Spinning records has been more enjoyable than ever before.

Good luck Mick in your endeavors.

Mick: It is very sad to hear these news. Hope you and your family the best. As far as Puerto Rico- there are Supratek owners and fans.

Hello Mark,

Thanks again!

Hi Mick,

It was a very sad moment last week when I went into the Deal of the Century thread in A'gon to keep up to date with fellows supratekies comments and news and I read the news of your dismissal of the Supratek operation. Your reasons are totally valid and in any case the decision is absolutely yours. I join all the others in expressing my best wishes for success and happiness in all your future endeavors both personally and professionally together with your loved ones. I am totally sure that your passion and dedication will yield a successful outcome.

The timing is particularly off because I had read somewhere of plans by you of attending as an exhibitor to the next Rocky Mountain Audio Fest in Denver, Colorado next October, and I was looking forward to meet you and experience a complete Supratek electronics set-up. Although I am very happy with my present amplification I confess that your amps. where always tempting, and in the back of my mind .... By the way this show is very enjoyable due to it's nature of being geared to the audio enthusiast and not for dealers and distributors and therefore I would think,very fitting for you; I have gone the last two years and enjoy it very much; your participation this year was the excuse for attending again, now I am not sure ... I think that If you ever decide to come to one of these USA shows you should let it be known, I am sure that many of us would enjoy meeting you.

Again, thanks very much for your passion and dedication and for the legacy of these artesian pieces of electronics and am sure I join many others in hoping that before long you may find a way to bring Supratek back; if you do, please let us know. For now, the audio world is at a lost .... Wish you the best !

Best regards,

Jose Rodriguez
